TIL: Aliens: Fireteam Elite 1 exists

So weird, because it runs like ass on SD too.

I’m sure he is, but he’s also not wrong…

Its called an analogy. Not an equation.

What do we make of this? Why this? Why now?

Wish I could order it without the stupid puck!

And I wish the batteries were easier to swap!

But why

Oof. That hurts. Was planning to pick this up but at that price I may wait…

Listen, anything is better than Windows. That being said, Ubuntu is about as close as Linux gets to Windows in data collection and robbing control from the user. It’s the only distro I recommend everyone to NOT use.

Not inherently, no. But the problem is you DONT KNOW which ones are safe or not. You’re running software on your device without knowing what it’s doing.

Generally open source software is safer because if it was malicious somehow someone could theoretically see that and report it.

So if they want to make it malicious generally they will make it closed source as well.

Framework is getting first-party support for Ubuntu (and thus Ubuntu-derived distros) and will be “ubuntu certified” so probably not.

that still doesnt allow sending emoji reactions.

Either way, it doesn’t matter. The point is, RCS does not matter. It is not necessary.

I’m not sure what you mean. Every receiver has a sender. If you send it to someone with Google Messages without RCS, they will receive it.

It doesn’t, actually. Google Messages implemented this before Apple got RCS. It’s as simple as seeing a message come in that says " liked message" and converting it into a 👍 response for the referenced message. Unfortunately no one has followed their lead on that one.

This is a Mac app and not web-based

“Not so bad” at what? They’re doing this out of their own interests. It doesn’t mean at all that they care about the privacy of their constituents, and in fact they’re one of the worst offenders.

I don’t think that’s possible.

Been this way for a long long time. Its a common scam at this point.

Ah, should’ve known it was the UK again…
